But they might force some depth off the NHL roster that might get claimed on waivers. I'm not against signing players -- just not for signing players simply because there is cap space to do so.

Yeah, hopefully Shero has learned by now that backfilling the roster with marginal upgrades is a bad strategy. It clogs up the depth chart, taking ice time away from young players who are still developing.
